Iowa’s central location, competitive tax structure, and growing economy are all reasons why the state plays a dominant role in heavy-duty equipment manufacturing. 

Global leaders like CNH Industrial, Deere & Company, Hagie Manufacturing, Kinze Manufacturing, and Vermeer all choose Iowa for their major production hubs. See how a regional location in Iowa could boost your productivity to new heights.
